#

I read only the classics

pale tapir
#

For one, he's reconciling so much of spidey's supporting cast

cold dock
#

secret wars just steered me away

#

and civil war II

pale tapir
#

Giving black cat knowledge of spidey's identity again was key imho

#

Civil war ii and secret empire were both shit shows

#

I liked secret wars a lot though

#

It was Hickman's swan song to the fantastic four more than anything

#

It wasn't an avengers story

cold dock
#

True true

#

but they f***in killed off the x-men

pale tapir
#

I know, I know

#

At least they're back now. But I can't follow x men anymore. It got to be too much at a certain point

#

But I heard Mr and Mrs X is really good

cold dock
#

X-Men now is unbearable af

pale tapir
#

Well, Jean Grey is back right?

#

Not time travel jean, 616 jean

#

And I heard her new x men team is pretty legit

cold dock
#

Really?

#

May give it a try

#

hmm...

#

A bit skeptical with X-Men titles

pale tapir
#

Also wolverine is somehow alive again

#

Too soon for that imho

cold dock
#

C'mon, mans poularity is what keeps him going

pale tapir
#

And they brought him back in such a convoluted way PPepeFacepalm

#

And he has "heat claws" now

#

The fuck are those supposed to be doffylmao

cold dock
#

He has the power of Oven

pale tapir
#

Except only in his claws lmfao

cold dock
#

like wtf was the decision behind that

#

were they sniffin coke

pale tapir
#

I like some stuff marvel is doing. But they haven't been "on track" since marvel now happened

#

And I'm a huge marvel fanboy so that makes me sad. They're all over the place

cold dock
#

Pre-2010 Marvel was best Marvel

pale tapir
#

They also keep retconning characters to fit into the mcu. Which is fine, but marvel has been so much better

#

Also fuck yes. Siege was the height for me

cold dock
#

Marvel comics exists literally for the MCU

pale tapir
#

Seeing the avengers show up together to fuck shit up in asgard

cold dock
#

at this point

pale tapir
cold dock
#

IKR

#

Marvel comics has to get their s*** together and reform

pale tapir
#

I miss this marvel

cold dock
#

We all miss this marvel

#

New marvel is just the fecal deposit

#

that is of this

crimson lance
#

Only marvel comic i enjoyed was the original run of Ultimate spiderman

pale tapir
#

It's so all over the place

#

William, the original ultimate Spider-Man run is one of my favorite things ever

cold dock
#

Ultimate was good, till Ultimatium f***ed everyone over

crimson lance
#

yeah

pale tapir
#

Yeah, but they kept Spider-Man good, which is all I could have hoped for tbh

crimson lance
#

I prefer ultimate 2009's ending

#

But the run of 2009 as a whole is shit

cold dock
#

What was Bendis thinking

pale tapir
#

Was it bendis who wrote ultimatum?

cold dock
#

Yeah

pale tapir
#

sighs I have... Mixed feelings about bendis

#

He knows how to write Spider-Man

#

But no one else

cold dock
#

EVERYONE has mixed feeling about Bendis

#

He writes a good Spiderman

pale tapir
#

And his Avengers run was pretty good

#

New Avengers still had the coolest lineup

knotty fox
#

why

cold dock
#

Yeah, his high point

#

OH GOD WHAT IS THIS

sage sleet
#

wait...

pale tapir
#

Ew lmao

sage sleet
#

didn't they learn from the last one they did

knotty fox
#

Nope

pale tapir
#

Pasto, you know they didn't

sage sleet
#

cmon guys

#

you know what

#

actually nvm lmao

#

was gonna say maybe wb can do it but nah

pale tapir
#

Here's what I don't understand

#

Of all the things on cartoon Network to keep pushing

#

Why ben 10?

cold dock
#

CN is dead to me

pale tapir
#

Like. It had it's day in the sun during the 00's

#

But now. It's really really a dead horse

sage sleet
#

CN is dead period

#

after I saw them air TTG 23.5 hours a day for a week I knew

pale tapir
#

Also Shepherd, I appreciate cartoon Network for some small things. Coming back and finishing samurai Jack was wonderful

knotty fox
#

I like the Disney XD shows the best atm imo

cold dock
#

Yeah, but that was on AS

pale tapir
#

And they did the end justice. A but shorter than I would've liked, but they did it

#

True, true

cold dock
#

Samurai Jack ending was beautiful

pale tapir
#

TTG. why FeelsMoriaMan

cold dock
#

rushed abit, but beautiful

knotty fox
#

I need to binge watch Samurai Jack someday

pale tapir
#

Same. Rewatch it when I'm not super busy lol

cold dock
#

Same here

#

You know Samurai Jack was inspired by Frank Miller's Ronin

pale tapir
#

No I didn't, but that's pretty cool

#

Alright, I'm gonna go be somewhat productive. So I'm not swamped tomorrow lol

cold dock
#

Lol

#

Later Strong

sage sleet
#

samurai jack is a great show

#

that show actually fucked my sleep up as a kid

#

my parents would sometimes work super late so while 1 was asleep i'd stay up til like 4am and watch samurai jack and all those other CN shows

#

then be at school at 7

#

I was like 5 or 6

cold dock
#

LOL

calm sun
#

The end season of samurai jack was a huge disappointment for me

cold dock
#

Yeah it was mixed

#

it divided the fanbase 50/50

#

I don't blame anyone

#

The ending was a wtf moment for everyone

sage sleet
#

made me sad

#

liked the last season tho

cold dock
#

It was bittersweet

#

Jack's life was filled with depression and sadness

#

but at the very end with the cherry blossom, it symbolized that life persists and hope prevails

#

even in its darkest hours

#

a classic hero's journey

mighty mist
#

Yup. ^^

regal root
#

A bittersweet ending for Jack felt appropriate, I just hate all the little things that had to change due to a shortened season

cold dock
#

Still good regardless

mighty mist
#

@regal root What little things?

regal root
#

No rematch vs the guardian so no future Jack in the spartan looking armor, and his parents looking the exact same as they did before he was sent off to go training as a child

mighty mist
#

Oh, right. 😐

regal root
#

Just felt like that season could've been so much better if they had given GG like a full 24 episode season

#

Let's him tie up loose ends, and let's him do the ending like he initially intended back in the first run

cold dock
#

Aku killed the guardian though

#

a cop out, but it did tie that up

#

It was just rushed

#

like everyone was killed left and right

#

and left in obscurity

#

but I was still satisfied

pale tapir
#

I really loved that we got to see "Ronin Jack"

#

It made me see Jack as a deeper character than I had in any of the previous 4 seasons

cold dock

I want to get back into Star Wars comics. What are some canon comics I should pick up?

#

I’m covered in terms of Legends

cold dock
#

none

dim hedge
#

Darth Vader chasing two inquisitors for being in love and have them kill each other using the force

#

You can fuck but not feel

pale tapir
#

Does anyone here watch Killing Eve? Luffyexcited

sonic quail
#

Samurai jack GWaobaPePeCry

mighty mist
#

@pale tapir I've heard of it, but I haven't watched it.

cold dock
#

Never heard of it

scenic terrace
#

When you randomly turn on Star Trek and it’s the episode where one of captain picard’s memes come from

#

👌

cold dock
mighty mist
#

XD

pale tapir
#

Moon, it's a great show. I really recommend it. No one else I know watches it so I was hoping to have someone to talk about it with lmao

mighty mist
#

You mean Killing Eve?

#

@pale tapir

pale tapir
#

Yes moon

#

Killing Eve is awesome. Probably one of my favorite shows that released last year

mighty mist
#

Can you tell me what it's about?

regal root
#

Eve Polastri (Sandra Oh), a desk-bound MI5 officer, begins to track down talented psychopathic assassin Villanelle (Jodie Comer), while both women become obsessed with each other.

#

@mighty mist

mighty mist
#

Cool. 😃

pale tapir
#

Thanks Buc lol, been busy with work so I couldn't reply, Moon

jolly flint
#

The Star Wars prequels are underrated

calm sun
#

they're shit

jolly flint
#

False

broken fossil
cold dock
#

prequels were the most memeable

#

It's redeeming qualities are Ewan McGregor

pale tapir
#

Episode 3 was okay

neon coral
#

I liked 1.

cold dock
#

3 was legend

neon coral
#

2's the one I have the hardest time watching.

pale tapir
#

2 was a flaming trash pile

cold dock
#

2 was CGI-EYE-BLEACH

neon coral
#

the best part of 2 was Padmes white outfit

#

I wish they'd give Star Wars a CGI movie.

fluid merlin
#

Ive always tried to become a fan of SW, but in the end i feel indifferent of them. I like the original trilogy the most.

cold dock
#

Ewan Jesus McGregor is the only good thing of the prequels

#

Sequels belong in a trash pile thrown into the sun

#

OG Trilogy belongs in the heavens

jolly flint
#

I like episode 1 & 3, but not episode 2

#

OT purists scare me though

#

Why does the Star Wars fanbase have so much toxicity? I feel like that it should have some of the least.

calm sun
#

Because only one Star Wars movie was good

sonic quail
#

Im sorry but Hayden christenson hottness made up for whatever tf the prequels were doing gasm

#

That is a hill i can and will die on

#

The only man in history who made a rat tail look passable.

#

Also padme had amazing outfits

calm sun
#

They didn't really look like Star Wars though

sonic quail
#

We know where princess amidala got her style from

#

Who cares it was cute

calm sun
#

Lsd induced fever dreams

sonic quail
#

And lsd induced fever dreams have the most iconic ideas 👀

#

How do u think george lucas got his star wars ideas

calm sun
sonic quail
cold dock
mighty mist
#

Wow.

neon coral
#

Hayden's "hotness" lol. You mean the creepy rape vibes that accompanied his stiff robot-like acting?

mighty mist
#

Ew.

cold dock
#

"I hate sand" - Anakin Skywalker

sonic quail
#

Rape vibes?

#

I dont remember that but its been years

#

Either way he was still hot

neon coral
#

When he's trying to seduce her. Pretty much any interaction that has to do with Padme through out the movies, are creepy and cringy.

#

even him getting jealous about padmes childhood memories

mighty mist
#

Yuck.

cold dock
crimson lance
#

saw pet semetary

#

it was shit

#

2/10 only redeeming qualities were the old man and the song at the end

sage sleet
#

it didn't look good

#

dumb concept

#

sounded like a cartoon episode

crimson lance
#

yeah

#

My dad supposedly wanted to see it but was on his phone during it

#

I think he was just trying to be a good dad and thought we wanted to see it

neon coral
#

your dad was on his phone at the movie theater?

crimson lance
#

its a drive in

#

but yes

neon coral
#

oh thats fine then lol

#

I miss drive ins

crimson lance
#

They

#

They're still around

#

Better experience imo

neon coral
#

Not where I live. They've all shut down. They never played movies that were currently in theaters either. It would be stuff that's already come out

crimson lance
#

oh thats too bad

#

Except the already out thing i kinda like having both

sage sleet
#

where do you live

#

must be a place that's constantly warm

crimson lance
#

The drive in Around me is still alive, and does fairly well, today was empty but thats because its a weekday and nothing good out except shazam

#

Arizona, so kinda

sage sleet
#

ah

crimson lance
#

Its warmish but it still gets cold in the night

sage sleet
#

i'd love one here

crimson lance
#

Just move to a better state

sage sleet
#

right when I think they could do it around this time of year it starts snowing

#

fr

crimson lance
#

The theather here is year round which is nice

#

Cheap as fuck too

#

7$ for adults 1.75 for a kid and they dont really question a 17 year old pretending to be 11

sage sleet
#

jeez

#

fuck avatar

#

made movie tickets expensive

crimson lance
#

Did it?

sage sleet
#

apparently

crimson lance
#

i didnt get any kinda results saying so

#

when i googled it

sage sleet
#

I'll ask a friend

#

he told me about it but I zoned out

crimson lance
#

Watch it be a fucking conspiracy theory

neon coral
#

Avatar was one of the first movies that theaters started charging a premium for

crimson lance
#

Whats premium exactly

neon coral
#

then they kept the premium cost

#

just added cot

#

cost

#

so normal movie was 8 dollars. but Avatar was 12 dollars

crimson lance
#

Did it add anything or was it just expensive

sage sleet
#

8 would be nice

#

hurts me paying 13.99

#

I never see movies unless it's a tuesday

neon coral
#

More expensive because hype and the 3D, I think.

sage sleet
#

5$ ticket tuesday

neon coral
#

I don't bother with movies anymore

crimson lance
#

Same deal at my Drive in

neon coral
#

costs too much and people are always loud or on their phoens

crimson lance
#

but the difference is non existant with how cheap it already is

sage sleet
#

I'd love to go on any random day to see a movie

#

I've only had a bad experience once or twice and it was when I took my brother to see a kids movie

#

last bad one was small foot

#

whole row behind us was so loud

crimson lance
#

The theather was empty as fuck today

#

Only 3 other cars in my section

neon coral
#

yeah and all you can do is walk out of the movie and complain, at which point you're not watching it anymore

sage sleet
#

I should have done that to get free tickets

regal root
#

Sorry to interrupt and go off topic but here is some cool GoT fanart I found

neon coral
#

GoT needs asian characters

sage sleet
#

ooo I like this

neon coral
#

and I dislike how you're meant to pre order your tickets and pick your seats months ahead of time now

sage sleet
#

really?

#

at my theater I just go 15 mins before and buy my ticket and seat

#

I can check availability prior online

ivory egret
#

That art makes me miss Westworld

neon coral
#

Yeah. when I wanted to go see the MHA movie, all 6 showings were sold out ahead of time. Broly was the same. Looking forward to the day movies can be watched from home on theatrical release. But I doubt that'll ever happen lol

jolly flint
#

Movie theaters are dying out sadly

neon coral
#

that's fine. People can replicate the experience at home now.

#

minus the fees and annoyances.

sonic quail
#

ye same here pasto

#

its good to live in a city with a fuck ton of theaters

cold dock
#

same here

#

but alas, I am too poor

sonic quail
#

cold dock
#

In Canada, movie theaters are more secure than banks

sonic quail
#

lmao

cold dock

In Russia, banks secure the movie theater

In India, you are the theater

#

Who here has or is currently reading the OG 1963 spidey run

#

or OG 1963 Avengers

jolly flint
#

I’m actually trying to read Ultimate Spider Man

cold dock
#

Ultimate is good

#

But do not read the other ultimate titles

#

unless if its Avengers

jolly flint
#

I had kind of a bad first exposure to Marvel comics. I’ve always been a Star Wars and DC fan. (Marvel nearly killed the Star Wars EU in the mid 80s).

cold dock
#

DH luckily fully revived it

jolly flint
#

I have mixed feelings about DH. They’ve done a lot of great things for Star Wars, but their manga releases are total trash.

cold dock
#

True true

#

Their comics though are sooo good!

jolly flint
#

Yeah

#

DH is really really good

cold dock
#

Better than Image

jolly flint
#

I miss Tokyopop though

cold dock
#

Everyone misses them

jolly flint
#

What made them popular kinda ended up killing them

cold dock
#

Ironic death is ironic

dim hedge
#

what Star Wars

#

All I see is Fan fiction

cold dock
#

Dark Horse comics was good

#

with Star Wars

dim hedge
#

Until it become canon

cold dock
#

Marvel is fanfiction

#

lol

#

Lukey Skywalker. Old, grumpy and virgin

#

All the Jedi are dead cause it boring to have good guys around

cold dock
#

F*** u, LOL

Random Evil villain. I am Snoke. I FEEL YOUR HATE I FEEL YOUR ANGER. And he gets cut in half

Leia is s*** on

dim hedge

Leia: I am being my mom 2.0 but with the force

#

Palpatine in Clone wars: LET ME TELL YOU THAT THIS WAR IS CAUSED BY THE JEDI. BLAME THE JEDI
People: Yeah!!
Jedi: We do nothing about this obvious blaming on live TV

#

Yoda: I have seen the future. We must do nothing and let the Jedi fall so there be one of us left sulking and bitching on a planet

cold dock
#

lol

#

but all the jedi were dead or scattered by that point

#

And Leia having the force makes no bloody sense

#

And when did force ghosts become OP

dim hedge
#

She has the force. it basically sexist

#

And then they turn full on feminist on Rey

cold dock
#

IKR

#

Blatant feminist message killed SW

dim hedge
#

no,no,no, we cannot have Leia to be jedi master

#

But fk yeah we can have random chick to be uber powerful

#

All the Jedi are dead

#

Only Rey left. Cause Disney dont like good guys. they like writing fairy tales where one person is the center of the universe

cold dock
#

Indeed

#

Ruin Johnson is a terrible writer

#

Kathleen Kennedy must be removed

mighty mist
#

Damn you, Disney! DX

jolly flint
#

I actually liked the Force Awakens

#

I’m afraid to see the Last Jedi

#

TLJ is cancer

jolly flint
#

I really want to see Rogue One

#

I heard that Rogue One is amazing

cold dock
#

Rogue one is good

#

but hate the retcon that it is

jolly flint
#

Like, it’s the best Star Wars movie since the OT

cold dock
#

it is

#

BUT THE RETCON

jolly flint
#

I was going to see Solo but I got sick

#

I heard Solo is flawed but enjoyable

cold dock
#

Solo is okay

#

but Lando is a pansexual

#

or robosexual

#

...

mighty mist
#

He is?

cold dock
#

I'm not joking

#

that's my gripe with it

#

the movie

mighty mist
#

What's wrong with pansexuality?

cold dock
#

Oh nothing

#

but OG canon never had that

#

also the concept felt forced

#

in movie

#

it was just odd

#

also the Movie felt like a retelling of everything we knoew about Han

#

end credits though were worth it

#

won't spoil it

mighty mist
#

Oh. 😐

Reason why he hate the Jedi cause they tell him " You cant be a jedi cause you are not force sensitive

cold dock
#

Old canon

dim hedge
#

RAWRRRRRRRRR THEN I WILL BE A CYBORG AND KILL EVERYONE OF YOU JEDI

#

this is the new canon actuallu

cold dock
#

Disney SJW canon says that he's a bounty hunter

#

wait wat?

#

New canon said he was a bounty hunter

dim hedge
#

I guess they rewrite it again

#

Cause they were going with bitching guy

#

I guess they stick with the old bio

cold dock
#

Hmm... Disney is a hack

dim hedge
#

Grievious also has a bug

#

I learn from Count Dooku himself and his streak of wins is a joke.

dim hedge
#

This is not canon

cold dock
#

well not anymore

dim hedge
#

He cant even beat Gungans

cold dock
#

it was in 2003

#

before the clone wars 08 came in

#

They nerfed him severely

#

imo

dim hedge
#

Ja Ja

#

He now a clown

#

a literal clown

cold dock
#

^

dim hedge
#

He is kicked out of his homeland

#

everyone knows who he is. The idiot who gave Palpatine the POWER

cold dock
#

Grievous? More like Lrievous!

jolly flint
#

Grievous got heavily nerfed

#

He kinda needed too tbh

cold dock
#

But it sucks that he did

jolly flint
#

I don’t like Grievous but I hate how they treated him in the cartoon

dim hedge
#

Maul was terrible

jolly flint
#

Maul was great

dim hedge
#

so is his brother Savage

jolly flint
#

Probably one of the most fleshed out villains in Star Wars

dim hedge
#

Oh pls He now obi wan ex girlfriend crying for his blood

cold dock
#

Maul is Savage

dim hedge

The ending was fine but his return was shit

cold dock

Maul put up a fight. Palpatine went from grinning to ugh I have to try. up a bit of power and win

#

Just two chums being really annoying to the story.

cold dock
#

Pree much

jolly flint
#

😢

#

I liked it

cold dock
#

And that is okay

dim hedge
#

It wasnt really a fight

cold dock
#

Yeah

dim hedge
#

It just Palpatine doing a morning exercise

cold dock
#

#

For Palpatine, it was a Tuesday breakfast

dim hedge
#

Palpatine isnt all that powerful. if the whole council mob him he be dead

cold dock
#

LOL

dim hedge
#

Palpatine: Master Jedi. OMG ALL OF YOU ARE HERE
Yoda: Not prepared you are, Chancellor

#

Yoda can clash with him equally. Shaak Ti, Plo koon, Obi wan can defend. Mace can clash with him as well. I cant say for the three who lost their heads but the rest I think they can handle it

#

so yeah the whole council can kill you if they mob him

cold dock
#

Too bad they got 66'd

dim hedge
#

cause someone wants to be a badass motherfucker

#

Luke:I cant kill my father but I sure can kill my nephew

cold dock
#

LOL

neon coral
#

that plot of the new movies bothers me

#

You'd figure Leia & Han would've been livid finding this out.

#

"oh luke, you were gonna kill our son and that's why he rampaged? Well, maybe he's not such a villain then"

cold dock
#

SW is beyond saving

#

I dare not watch episode 9

neon coral
#

I'm gonna do what I did with rogue one and episode 8 and wait until its on netflix

#

Sucks to see a franchise like star wars finally land in a place where It could live up to its potential and see it get treated this way

cold dock
#

Pirate the movie, that's what I do

jolly flint
#

Haven’t seen TLJ yet

#

I have it on Netflix

cold dock
#

DON'T

neon coral
#

Not gonna watch a camcorder quality movie. fuck that

#

ONE WORD OF ADVICE

#

DON'T

#

I MADE THE MISTAKE

jolly flint
#

I think I’ll get a little annoyed from it though

#

I don’t mind that it criticizes Capitalism. What I do mind is that every man in the movie is apparently an idiot.

cold dock
#

You will be cringing throughout

#

and be wondering where tf is Ackbar

#

and why tf does this make sense

jolly flint
#

I might try watching the Force Awakens again before it

cold dock
#

or how can a character be this... this BAD

jolly flint
#

The last time I saw the Force Awakens was the day it released

cold dock
#

same

#

I never bothered to watch again

#

or touch up on anything related to it

jolly flint
#

I remember liking the Force Awakens

#

But having some issues with it

#

I do think the Prequels are good which I know will piss people off

cold dock
#

It was New Hope 2.0

jolly flint
#

Yeah

cold dock
#

Prequels at least tried to be original

jolly flint
#

That was my biggest issue with it. The movie was way too similar to a New Hope.

cold dock
#

Heck, Lucas should have finished his story

#

may have recieved flak

#

but it would be better than the stuff Disney is pumping out

neon coral
#

Yeah, they're just trying to copy the old movie formulas while fitting 2019 political shit into it lol

cold dock
#

lol

#

Truth is revealed

neon coral
#

I despise the "I have a personality and I'm quirky" droids. It worked for R2 & C3 but all these new droids they introduce are shit

#

Landos droid, the one from rogue one

jolly flint
#

Are the villains at least good in TLJ?

cold dock
#

No

#

No they are not

jolly flint
#

Supporting characters?

cold dock
#

We don't talk about them

#

theyare all BABIES

neon coral
#

No. there's more asspulls in TLJ than there is in 7 deadly sins

cold dock
#

EVERYONE IS BABIES

jolly flint
#

Kylo Ren was my favorite character in TFA. Is he treated well in TLJ?

cold dock
#

NO

neon coral
#

The only good star wars content that's come out in recent years is Rebels

cold dock
#

F*** NO

#

KYLO WAS S*** ON

neon coral
#

everyone was

cold dock
#

^

neon coral
#

snokes too

#

all its showing is that all that "george lucas is the problem with star wars" propaganda, was clearly not just a george lucas issue.

cold dock
#

Basically, the whole movie was a greater L than Loro

neon coral
#

It's a very generic story that barely holds up

jolly flint
#

I really wish Disney would do a movie on the ancient Sith/Jedi

cold dock
#

No

#

Please no

jolly flint
#

I think Lucas lost a big opportunity with that

neon coral
#

with so many plot holes and main characters like Luke completely breaking their character for the sake of plot

cold dock
#

Luke's character took a major L

#

I think Harrison got lucky

neon coral
#

At this point, I'd rather we get a full CGI movie, like the TOR trailers

cold dock
#

^

#

I don't trust Disney with anything.

neon coral
#

It'd be way better for star wars. there's wouldn't be cringe or trying to add different ethnicities to be PC. They can even model the characters on people. But It would be way more interesting.

cold dock
#

CGI is the only thing they don't f*** up

#

but with SW

#

it could fall under its curse

neon coral
#

Yeah, Disneys pumping out the most generic content. I keep hearing about them adding new "marvel shows" to their streaming service too. It's overwhelming

#

And now we can't even look forward to something as simple as a SW video game

cold dock
#

Disney is tryin to MCUify SW and other properties

neon coral
#

and everyone's praising them for it for some reason.

cold dock
#

Just the SJWs

#

not the true fans

jolly flint
#

I don’t think it’s right to call someone “not a true fan” for liking something not good in the series. I’ve been called not a true fan for liking the prequels.

cold dock
#

SJWs include cosplayers, men and women who never watched star wars in their life or breathed it their whole life

#

Hating prequels makes you a fan

neon coral
#

Well, by everyone, I mean the masses. I've said it before - Disney's just pumping out high budget hallmark quality movies, filling them with CGI and making a profit because people like to see Spiderman make a funny joke while sitting next to Iron man.

#

Even episode 1-2-3 had that quality to them that made them feel like movies.

cold dock
#

Indeed

#

But its like Bayformers essentially

#

they make s***-loads of money

#

but in the Future, it makes less and less

calm sun
#

The Disney movies use more practical effects then the prequels

neon coral
#

Yeah but the transformers movies have always gotten fluffed by China

cold dock
#

China values them as action movies

#

which makes sense

neon coral
#

there's money laundering going on there for movie tickets

cold dock
#

And the fact that its done with high CGI is what causes the fluff

#

it look pretty

#

an eye-candy

jolly flint
#

lol why does China like the Transformers so much?

cold dock
#

or eye-porn

neon coral
#

Where producers pay money, so that the numbers reported get changed. It's why sometimes you see a movie do bad here and suddenly it's a massive hit in China

#

Or they'll do it to bring the numbers over a certain threshold to beat records

#

then it gets passed off as "China has a lot of people, that's why"

cold dock
#

Foriegn audiences are there for effects and CG

#

that and what rebelled says

jolly flint
#

What’s the Chinese gaming scene like?

cold dock
#

I'm no expert with gaming

neon coral
#

and practical effects vs CGI won't make/break a movie. Even with the Prequel hate, I can still rewatch those and enjoy them, which is not something I can do with any of the recent SW movies.

cold dock
#

I cannot answer that

#

Prequels are good eye-candy

jolly flint
#

There’s a lot of negativity in this channel

cold dock
#

its mindless action

neon coral
#

Chinese Gaming scene is big with Mobile.

#

and cheating, apparently lol

cold dock
#

which is good for killing time

#

However, on a serious note, Lucas is a visionary director

#

He can make scenes look cooler

#

heck, the beginning of Episode 3 is by far the best opening of any SW movie to date

calm sun
#

No it isn't

#

That is the most wrong thing I've ever heard

cold dock
#

Minus the Buzz droids

#

they were stupid

jolly flint
#

I’ve said my reasoning for why I think the prequels are good here before, but I don’t think ROTS has the best opening.

cold dock
#

Yeah, Its a bit of an over-exaggeration

#

but you get my point

neon coral
#

6 is my favorite opening.

cold dock
#

Lucas can make scenes look good

calm sun
#

Does Lucas telling computer animators to shove more shit on the screen count as making it good

cold dock
#

Im talking in a scripting sense

#

Old-man Lucas over-inflates

#

but, the sequencing is done right

#

His dialogue has seen better days

#

if at all

neon coral
#

Hopefully one day Disney & EA will lose control over the property

jolly flint
#

The dialogue in Star Wars has always been kinda bad

#

Def not a strong point for Lucas

cold dock
#

indeed

calm sun
#

This is the opening for a new hope

neon coral
#

I liked the dialogue in his movies more than anything in the recent movies

calm sun
#

Just with this image you can tell which side is rebels and empire

jolly flint
#

I actually like the opening for New Hope the best too

calm sun
#

And it's iconic, you know that's star wars

cold dock
#

True true

calm sun
#

This is ROTS

#

I have no idea what's going on

#

It looks like a old videogame

#

And a clusterfuck

neon coral
#

A space battle would be a clusterfuck, though. And I wish my old video games looked like that

cold dock
#

In all honesty, I could always tell the difference between Seperatists and Republic fleets

#

since I saw them

#

Still clusterf***ed

#

but better than Bayformers

jolly flint
#

The Transformers movies are so shitty

#

I wish that DC would stop trying to make up shit for their superhero movies

cold dock
#

ngl, I f***in couldn't tell wtf was fighting who in TF ROTF

#

DOTM was somewhat doable

#

Age of extinction was a WTF IS GOING ON

jolly flint

I pray that Superman: What Happened to the Man of Tomorrow will get a film adaptation someday

cold dock
#

regal root
#

Oh dude, that episode of JLU kills me looking back at it. Why would you ever risk legitimately pissing off Superman?

neon coral
#

I'm just waiting on the superhero phase to blow over

#

DC animated movies were always great.

#

Pissed off Superman is scary.

cold dock
#

Has anyone read DK 3 the Master Race

#

Pissed of Superman is F***in scary as hell in that

neon coral
#

I have not. My experience with pissed Superman is from that manchester black film

cold dock
#

That one is good

#

but read DK 3

regal root
#

For real, Superman is a legit good person. You ever meet a good person who has been pushed to their limit? They're scarier than bad people

cold dock
#

I am that

#

according to my friends

#

I wish not to know how that is possible

regal root
#

Also generally not a smart move to piss off someone who can physically bench press the planet

cold dock
#

LOL

#

Only person who does that is Batman

#

because they are Besties

regal root
#

I love their relationship so much

cold dock
#

same

regal root
#

I can't decide which I like better though, them as frenemies or as best bros (or at least as bro as Batman can reasonably be)

#

They're both so good in stories

jolly flint
#

I want a Rated R Lobo movie too 😢

neon coral
#

there was talk of that a while back

#

DC had good movie ideas being thrown around and none of them actually happened

#

that Lobo movie, the black adam movie, that batman era joker movie, the standalone batman, etc. Now they're playing it safe with another Suicide squad, minus Deadshot so that people avoid confusing Idris Elba for Will Smith lol

regal root
#

I just don't know who would be a good Lobo now that Jason Momoa is locked in as Aquaman

cold dock
#

but in the end they say sorry and forgive

#

Best Bros will always become frenemies at one point

#

f***in lag

regal root
#

Oof

jolly flint
#

I think Ron Perlman could be a good Lobo

cold dock
#

yeah oof

#

but doth true, best bros become great frenemy

regal root
#

I'd prefer Ron Perlman as Slade to be honest but considering that DC seems to be locked in on Joe Manganiello then Lobo would be a good fit for him

cold dock
#

Ron Perlman's voice doesn't exactly fit

regal root
#

Fit who, Slade or Lobo?

neon coral
#

he's too old

cold dock
#

Lobo

neon coral
#

unless they CGI Lobo

#

but yeah, his voice isn't Lobo.

cold dock
#

He fits Slade perfectly

#

cold, calculating, calm, but is aggresive when needs be

#

Lobo is the opposite

regal root
#

Not like they can get Brad Garrett to do Lobo, he's no where near in physical shape to play him, plus he's almost as old as Perlman is

cold dock
#

indeed lol

jolly flint
#

I was thinking they’d have someone playing Lobo physically and someone voicing him

#

They’d sync up the lips

regal root
#

I'd hate that though, I think I'd rather they just find someone buff nobody to play him and earn the role

cold dock
#

? You mean like Batista is for Drax

sage sleet
#

i'm skeptical for a lobo movie

#

he could be done alone but I think it'd be best if it were after a GL movie

jolly flint
#

Part of me doesn’t want it because I think they’d change him so he isn’t Lobo

sage sleet
#

incorporate the whole space universe

#

they seem like they've been faithful

#

with shazam and what not

#

wonder woman

#

the aquaman change was good imo

jolly flint
#

But Lobo is... Lobo

sage sleet
#

they can make lobo

#

lobo

#

they've been getting him right in the animated series so I have faith

#

but I want them to buiild first

cold dock
#

Lobo is main man

neon coral
#

lol brad garrett

cold dock
#

he is a bounty hunter

neon coral
#

I just wanna see the rock as black adam

sage sleet
#

we all do

#

I think he'd do it

#

see the movie being worth his time because of the success of shazam

#

even if it doesn't make a billion people need to remember the budget

#

90 mil

jolly flint
#

The Rock has said that he’s really passionate about the role before

#

The only thing I’d really be against is making Bone a movie

#

I don’t think that comic could ever be successfully adapted in the film medium

cold dock
#

I have never read bone

Don't kill me...

jolly flint

No biggie

phew

I didn't know dwayne said anything about the role

that's sick

I hope titans learns from its mistakes

I enjoyed it but there were flaws

one thing I never noticed was how blue the show was

this bruce is supposed to be older I guess

regal root

Loved old man Bats in Batman Beyond

sage sleet

they played him perfectly

still bummed the batman beyond movie was fake

I hope it's actually happening but they just lied to bring the hype again

"In my head that's not what I call myself" Still brings a smile to my face thinking of that scene

the new jlu movie is out

comes out on blu ray in 5 days

sage sleet

you can binge it on the DC universe service

#

you get a week free

8$ a month or 70 for a year

neon coral

that's probably US only, isn't it?

sage sleet

but you do get a free trial

cold dock
#

or like me, STREAM IT

sage sleet

doubt it's locked

neon coral
#

gonna check that out right now

cold dock
#

its worth it

sage sleet
#

season 3 has been so good

#

like it hurt me

cold dock
#

you will not be dissapointed

sage sleet
#

there's a few animation hiccups but nothing that'll kill you

#

probably the budget

cold dock
#

also, Batman Inc is canon in it

#

as well as Court of Owls

neon coral

apparently in Canada, it airs on tv

sage sleet

canada ftw

I don't have cable

titan ended up on netflix

BUT YES CANADA

Considering the cost of internet and tv services here, we better get all the shows

the dc streaming service is worth it imo

it has a fuck ton of comics and shit

but only in States

sage sleet

that sucks

weird it's only here

they plan to expand

when did it come out?

last june?

cold dock

yes

sage sleet

so not bad

#

first year

cold dock
#

indeed

#

probably this June it'll release international

sage sleet

around comic con would be smart

#

so yeah june

cold dock

Yeah

Remember when comic con used to be about comics

#

calm sun

In the 1920's

But it was 1970s

sage sleet

I'm gonna try and go to comic con next year with some friends

Ah ic

there's news that there's gonna be something huge for DC soon

maybe around comic com

people think it's the snyder cut

cold dock
#

really?

jolly flint
#

@sage sleet yeah, it was that Bone

cold dock
#

SNYDER CUT

jolly flint
#

One of my favorite graphic novels

sage sleet
#

I always saw it at the book fair but it was always behind geronimo stilton and diary of a wimpy kid

#

I wanna see the snyder cut

calm sun
#

It won't be the Snyder cut

sage sleet
#

I'll admit I don't love the other movies snyder has done for the dceu but they aren't bad

calm sun
#

If that was ever gonna come out it would have been in the justice league dvd

jolly flint
#

Bone is really good. Don’t let it’s presence at school book fairs deter you.

sage sleet
#

There's a huge following behind it

#

a dvd release would be weak

cold dock
#

indeed

#

it has to be an event

sage sleet
#

even jason mamoa was asking for it

#

and he's the wb golden boy

neon coral
#

I'm guessing if Brightburn ends up being a success, DC might consider something more horror-esque and that'd be the perfect opportunity to show off the magic side of their universe

cold dock
#

Ye

#

but ironically its not a DC movie

sage sleet
#

Joker is supposed to be rater r isnt it

#

or r ish

#

plus aquaman and shazam were directed by horror directors so that's good

cold dock

ye

sage sleet

I was scared for joker because the director did the hangover movies which aren't horror

but the trailer looked sick

Part of me hopes that this is just a phase that will pass and that the comics industry will return to normal and focus on making good stories, but then another part of me hears that Disney is thinking about closing down Marvel comics and I'm glad to hear it.

I don't think there is really a both sides argument to that one though, on one side you have a YTer who constantly takes the piss out of SJW Marvel and was starting up a crowdfunded comic to sell by peeps who wanted a good story to read, on the other you had a big name in the comics industry going out of his way to strong arm comic shop owners to not sell the book seemingly because of his pettiness out of D&C criticizing him personally, then he went out to brag about it online.

Pretty one-sided if you ask me

Mark Waid is definitely in the wrong

I don't know about this comic drama thingy

neon coral

I haven't followed it since it went down. I just know that one shop run by "SJWs" started attacking its customers and insulting them, even banning regulars for wanting certain comics, which lead to controversery, while another smaller shop, which was run by two guys who love comics, board games & MTG, had to shut down due to harassment and other shit.
